782: Chapter 781 Using the Black Lightning Ball

Black light flowed across the blade, exuding a heart-palpitating pressure.

Qin Yan slashed out, sending a blade light of destruction flying straight ahead.

The blade light was pitch black like ink, stretching dozens of zhang long.

Wherever the blade light passed, the thick fog of destruction dispersed to the sides, forming a wide path.

The black fog of destruction, which made it impossible for countless Martial Artists to take even a single step, retreated before the spirit blade of destruction like subjects seeing their king.

Qin Yan waved his hand to put away the Destruction Battle Blade and walked toward the outer area.

...

About half a quarter of an hour later, Qin Yan finally walked out of the thick fog of destruction that had shrouded this world for decades, stepping back into the depths of the Core Area.

The grayish-black thick fog became much thinner here.

However, as his gaze fell upon the scene before him, his expression froze.

"What... happened to the Core Area?"

The Core Area at this moment was completely empty.

The once bustling martial experts had all vanished without a trace.

On the ground, giant craters were densely packed.

The giant craters varied in size, some being several zhang, some dozens of zhang, some hundreds of zhang, and some thousands of zhang.

The edges of the craters were filled with shattered rocks and scorched earth;

In the center of the craters were deep depressions and crisscrossing cracks.

In the sky, purple lightning and destruction intertwined, forming patches of forbidden Domains!

The purple lightning and black destruction aura entangled with each other, like two oceans colliding.

In the area where they intertwined, space trembled violently, producing layers of black ripples as if it would shatter at any moment.

Any living creature that stepped into this area would be struck down by the purple lightning and eroded by the destruction, leaving absolutely no chance of survival.

"This is no place to linger. I must get out quickly!"

Qin Yan thought to himself.

The Core Area had turned into a purgatory, with destruction and purple lightning intertwined, and forbidden Domains everywhere.

If he stayed any longer, he might be caught in the crossfire at any moment.

With this thought, Qin Yan took a step and walked toward the outer area.

However, after sensing the lingering forbidden aura around him, Qin Yan knew that without relying on external help, he could not possibly walk out of this area on his own.

Forbidden aura—a death zone formed by the intertwining of destruction and purple lightning.

Even Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters could perish if they entered.

Let alone a mere Sixth-Rank Martial Artist like him!

"I still have to rely on you," Qin Yan murmured, looking at the damaged battle blade in his hand.

The battle blade was pitch black all over, its body covered in cracks.

Although damaged, it was still a Venerable-grade spirit weapon.

Fifty thousand destruction blade inscriptions flowed across the blade, emitting a grayish-black glow.

Then, Qin Yan threw the battle blade into the air and began to form hand seals.

His ten fingers flew as profound hand seals were cast from his hands one after another.

The hand seals were grayish-black, intertwining and wrapping around each other in the air to form a complex rune.

This hand seal was passed down to him by the weapon spirit before its death, used for simple control over this fifty-thousand-inscription spirit weapon!

"Go!"

Qin Yan gave a low shout and released the hand seal.

The black hand seal turned into a stream of light and sank into the spirit blade of destruction hovering above his head.

The battle blade vibrated slightly, emitting a low hum.

Immediately, streams of black water flowed out from the battle blade, wrapping, intertwining, and condensing around Qin Yan.

Those streams of water were the water of destruction stored within the spirit blade of destruction, the power injected into the battle blade by the weapon spirit at its final moment.

The streams of water constructed a water barrier of destruction around Qin Yan, wrapping him layer by layer.

The water barrier was spherical, pitch black all over, with complex patterns flowing on its surface.

Qin Yan seeing this, finally continued walking toward the outer edge of the Core Area.

With the enhancement of the water barrier, the destruction aura permeating the air wrapped around Qin Yan layer by layer, forming a black shield that blocked the external attacks from the purple lightning.

The destruction aura and the water barrier of destruction shared the same origin; the two complemented each other, multiplying their power.

When the purple lightning struck it, it was eroded, consumed, and annihilated by the destruction aura, failing to pose any threat to Qin Yan.

Qin Yan's steps became much lighter, and his expression relaxed significantly.

With the protection of the spirit blade of destruction, he could barely be said to be in his element in this Core Area.

...

Meanwhile, high in the air deep within the Core Area, a silver figure hovered in the Void Realm, his gaze locked onto Qin Yan below, a flash of killing intent passing through his eyes.

The figure wore silver armor, had white-silver hair, a resolute face, and eyes filled with majesty and dominance.

First Prince Jun Wentian—the First Prince of the Guhen Kingdom, a Peak Great Grandmaster expert, and the recipient of Venerable Purple Thunder's Legacy.

He had already accepted Venerable Purple Thunder's Legacy a few days ago, obtaining three-thousandths of the Profound Truth of the Thunder Dao, and his strength had increased tremendously.

However, he did not leave, but waited for Qin Yan in the depths of the Core Area.

"Qin Yan, you've finally come out."

First Prince Jun Wentian spoke in a low voice, his tone filled with coldness.

He wanted to fulfill his promise to Venerable Purple Thunder by killing Qin Yan, ensuring that Venerable Destruction's Legacy would have no successor.

This was the agreement between him and Venerable Purple Thunder, the condition for him to obtain the Legacy.

Then, First Prince Jun Wentian waved his hand, and streaks of purple lightning condensed in his palm.

The lightning intertwined, wrapped, and condensed above his palm.

The purple light grew brighter and more intense, forming a giant lightning sword.

The giant sword was several zhang long, purplish-gold all over, with complex lightning patterns flowing on its blade.

Qin Yan, who was walking below, suddenly felt an extremely dangerous aura descend upon him!

That aura felt as if he were being targeted by an ancient Vicious Beast.

His hairs stood on end.

*Crack!*

Qin Yan abruptly looked up.

He saw a giant lightning sword hurtling straight toward him from high in the sky!

The giant sword pierced through the air, making a sharp, whistling sound.

Wherever it passed, space was torn apart.

Seeing this, Qin Yan's face changed drastically!

The power of this strike far exceeded the Peak Grandmaster level; it was an attack of at least the Great Grandmaster level!

"Someone wants to kill me!" Qin Yan was both shocked and enraged.

Without another word, he directly took out the Black Lightning Orb.

The lightning orb was about the size of a fist, pitch black all over, with black and purple patterns flowing on its surface.

Within the lightning orb, lightning flickered faintly, and a destruction aura surged.

Qin Yan sank his Mental Energy into the Black Lightning Orb, his hands quickly forming hand seals that fell upon the orb!

As the hand seals sank into the lightning orb, the patterns on it suddenly lit up.

Black and purple light surged from the lightning orb, intertwining and wrapping around each other.

Atop the Black Lightning Orb, purple lightning and destruction intertwined!

The purple lightning and the grayish-black destruction aura collided, fused, and sublimated on the surface of the lightning orb.

The aura of the lightning orb climbed rapidly.

"Go!" Qin Yan gave a low shout.

Immediately, a small raindrop intertwined with purple lightning and destruction floated straight out of the Black Lightning Orb!

The raindrop was only the size of a thumb, purplish-black all over.

It was very small, but the power it contained was absolutely immense!
